99% chance the Raiders start things off with doing what we all want them to do. Less than a 1% chance they trade the pick? Yep. There will be some interesting trades in the first round, including a possibility our new management trades up into the first round using the "extra" picks we have this year. But, I am expecting an evening of observing and anticipating rounds 2 & 3 tomorrow night.
Enjoy one of the best sports events of the year -- the NFL draft.

They merged...but still have separate broadcasts. I used to be an ESPN guy but switched to NFL Network about 10 years ago.

Anything less than two firsts for Crosby would be a fireable offense.

Nonsense. He wasn't worth two 1sts in the first place. And still isn't.

Except we got two firsts for him so apparently he was worth it.

Yea, how'd that work out?
If the Ravens thought he was worth it, he'd still be there. Bc we all know the injury excuse was just that, an excuse.

I'd still trade Maxx in a heartbeat but the Cowboys aint giving us two 1sts and they dont have a 2nd this year as of now.
But for me, I'd still trade him for #12 this year and a 2nd next year and fly him out 1st class.
the trade would work
dallas 12 and 20
raiders max and 2nd rd

Well, since picking Mendoza will be anticlimactic, trading away Maxx in the first round would make it an exciting night for us

Except we didn't? He is still on the team, we didn't get shit for him.

As long as it’s not 20 and Pickens. As soon as Pickens signs that Tag he can be traded I believe.

As would I. Hope he's gone so we can pick twice tonight.
